Families all across the United States are paying too high a price to cover the cost of home.

At Habitat, we know that a family should never have to spend more than 30% of their income on a home. 

Everywhere you look — cities, suburbs, rural areas — the stability that home should bring remains out of reach for far too many families. 

That is unacceptable.

We know the complexities that surround the cost of home. We also know the struggle, stress and pain of far too many families in our communities. Families who have suffered from redlining, racial inequality and the housing disparities that follow.

Families who have worked hard and still come up short, not because of their own efforts, but because of systemic issues and an inequitable economy. And we know that those with the fewest resources are always the ones who are forced to make the hardest choices. 

Everyone deserves to build the foundation for a stable, healthy future for themselves and their families — no matter who they are, where they live or how much money they earn.
